What is it a nudi? Can you get it out of the tank?

 

[saltwaterinbrooklyn]

Better get ready to dip your frags , hitchhikers are common these days , where did you get it from do ya have any idea ?

 

[Rob&Gab]

it was dipped, EveryTHING GETS DIPPED. its some type of LPS type thingy it has a skeleton and is encrusting on the plug that had the red hornets on it.

 

[BellaGabriella]

Almost looks and feels like some kinda sps.... No it's not a nudi lol!!!!! It's hard and dosnt like move around the tank

 

[BellaGabriella]

Oh and the colony was bought from manhattan aquarium a long time ago, it grew from like a needle tip sized thing to what u see in the photo

It looks like an sps is taking what the zoas used to call "their frag plug" back..

Green Pocillopora maybe?

 

[Waleedwale1]

Probably a SPS, I would scrape it off and glue it onto another frag plug or just cut this frag plug in half.

 

[whispers]

Looks like a galaxea Cora in the first pic

 

[dubs]

[daaznmofo]

I think it's a sps also, possibly poci

 

[skene]

def looks like poci...

 

[ducati335i]

It does look like poci, I have them all over my tank but none hsve ever bothered zoos.. I have zoos growing over them

 

[BellaGabriella]

If this is indeed a sps it is the hardiest little thing out there. it's been stabbed, scraped, pulled on, hot water blasted at it. It killed over 20 red hornets. And it's just Incrusting and getting bigger. I'm gunna chip off the remaining zoas and I guess see what it turns in to.
